Slender Man (2018)

Slender Man is an urban myth that has started circulating in the online community and a group of girlfriends decide to get involved just for fun.

A horror film based on a real online teen hysteria, which already has had real victims (very similar to the story in Mercy Black, children injured other children in the name of Slender Man). The film suffers in popularity precisely because of this real connection, being accused of trying to make profits from real sufferings that were still being clarified at the time of the film. As a film, it works ok, with a sufficient balance of banal and intriguing in order to still distract the viewer's mind from everyday worry, certainly not as bad as its general rating would suggest.

Director:  Sylvain White   
With: Joey King, Julia Goldani Telles, Jaz Sinclair, Annalise Basso

Rating: 6/10
